Appendix A - Choose a RAID Level Choose a RAID Level There are several issues to consider when choosing the RAID level. The following summarizes some advantages, disadvantages, and applications for each choice.
Appendix A - Choose a RAID Level What is RAID? RAID, or Redundant Array of Independent Disks, is a combination of two or more disks with the aim of providing fault tolerance and improving performance. There are several different levels of RAID, with each providing a different method of sharing or distributing data amongst the drives. The NVR supports RAID levels 0 and 1. RAID 0 RAID 0 provides data striping, which spreads out blocks of data over both drives, but does not provide data redundancy.
Appendix B - Replacing or Adding a new Hard Drive Replacing or Adding a New Hard Drive It is recommended that you back up your important files before replacing or adding a new hard drive to the NVR. Replacing a Hard Drive: Please make sure the power is off before replacing a hard drive. After you have installed the new drive, turn on the NVR, and then connect to the Web UI. The NVR will prompt you to format the new drive (Standard, RAID 1 mode) or both drives (JBOD, RAID 0 mode).
